It was late autumn, but the Tai'a Hall where the emperor lived was already full of braziers, and Mei Qin had just taken her son to the door of the temple, and she felt a strong warmth coming from her face.
At this moment, the chief eunuch who used to serve the emperor obediently opened the curtain for Mei Qin and personally led the way for her.
In the sleeping hall, next to the bright yellow dragon bed, the beautiful woman in the palace costume with a beautiful face no longer had the arrogance of the past, and when she saw Ah Qin approaching, she took the initiative to perform the ritual and blessing: "Concubines ask the empress dowager to be safe." ”
The corners of Ah Qin's lips were slightly ticked, and his smile was elegant and decent, but there was no slightest smile under his eyes: "Concubine Yang is a rule today..."
However, before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by a heart-rending cough from Yuan Qing lying on the bed, and after a long time, he reached out to Signal Ah Qin to approach, took her hand, and said angrily: "Queen, life can't be in the same niche, at least you can be in the same cave with Death." The edict to crown the crown prince has also been prepared, as long as you let Concubine Yang go..."
"At this point, Does Your Majesty also know how to play the emotional card?" without hesitation, he pulled away his hand, and Ah Qin said softly, "Your Majesty, do you think that the concubines still need your holy will now?" ”
Seeing Yuan Qing's expression stiffen, Ah Qin's smile became more and more sarcastic: "After the concubine dies, she will move into the concubine mausoleum, and she will never meet Your Majesty again." As for His Majesty's beloved Concubine Yang, at the same time as His Majesty's death, the concubines will certainly send her to reunite with Her Majesty immediately. ”
"You poisonous woman!" Almost as soon as her voice landed, Yuan Qing blushed with anger: "Even if you die, you will not be spared." ”
"Concubines are waiting." Ah Qin got up and straightened the slightly wrinkled hem, so he took his son's hand and slowly walked back, and when he was about to walk out of the palace door, he turned back and smiled at Yuan Qingyan, who coughed violently: "But since Your Majesty was born and could not fight concubines, I think it is even more helpless to die." ”
Regardless of the expressions of the people in the room, he turned around and walked out of the main hall.
Looking at the yellow and desolate sycamore leaves on the ground, Ah Qin, whose sideburns were already white, finally couldn't help but cover his eyes and shed tears.
Chapter 1
Unlike the famous and noble women in the capital, although Ah Qin was the concubine of the Meiguo Gong family, she grew up with her father at border passes since childhood.
The people of border customs are warm and simple, the Duke of Meiguo is busy with official duties, and Ah Qin does not have a little lady's self-consciousness, so Ah Qin, who grew up in a state of stocking, the four books of female red will not be, but they are proficient in riding horses and archery and playing with big knives.
In Ah Qin's heart at that time, his crush must have a rough appearance and a burly body, so he did not consider returning to Beijing to choose a family marriage or anything.
However, as her and Her Husband's death drew closer, the news that the Emperor was going to be elected again came out, and there were many rumors in the Gonggong Palace.
"I heard that shengshang had sent a special letter to the old master to arrange for the young lady to enter the palace to run for election."
"Also, it is said that His Royal Highness the Youngest Prince is two years older than our young lady, and His Royal Highness the Oldest Prince of Qi has recently passed and stood up to hug his grandson."
“……”
The guogongfu family style is strict, and the ladies in su ri do not dare to talk about the affairs of the master's family, and now that they are all spread out, it seems that it is only a matter of time before she wants to return to Beijing to run.
Ah Qin knew very well that whenever she returned to Beijing, even if she behaved badly, as long as she stood up to the status of a concubine of the Gonggong Palace, she would definitely be left behind by the people above.
Ah Qin did not want his life to be buried in the gorgeous cage of the deep palace, so after thinking about it, he decided to run away from home first and wait until he avoided the limelight of this time.
The night he made up his mind, Ah Qin packed up his packages and fled home.
She has always been not bad at all, plus she has enough gold and silver to be soft, so in Ah Qin's imagination, her life after that will definitely be wide and wide.
But she thought about it so much, but she forgot to guard against people's sinister intentions, this box she had just eaten a table of delicacies in the largest restaurant in the city, and it was not long before someone put a handful of sweat medicine.
The medicine poured on her was a nearby mountain thief who did nothing evil, and Ah Qin looked very good, so the little mountain thieves tied her up with some beautiful-looking girls and prepared to pull her back to the cottage as a lady of the village.
If it was an ordinary girl, she would definitely be afraid now, but Ah Qin was thinking about how to kill the head of the mountain thief when he loosened the shackles, and then how to make a name for himself in the martial forest through this incident.
However, before she could finish her complete plan, there was a sudden sound of arrows breaking through the air from far and near, and then the panicked cries of the little mountain thieves came instantly.
"No, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has brought people to suppress bandits."
As soon as the words fell, the girl who was still frightened and discolored did not shake her hands and feet at this time, and even a number of people began to think about what kind of weak expression they should use to attract the attention of His Highness the Prince, only Ah Qin, his eyes lit up, and then jumped down when the carriage turned over, looking at the young man with the silver gun and white horse at the head, and said loudly: "Your Highness, quickly untie me, I will also be able to help with kung fu." ”
Xu did not expect that among the kidnapped girls there was such a cheerful female haojie, Yuan Qing was stunned, and then he turned back, and the silver gun shook, and he broke the restraints on Ah Qin's body.
As soon as her hands and feet were liberated, Ah Qin immediately dried up a horse thief closest to her, got on the horse cleanly, and then before Yuan Qing could reward her with a look of admiration, she directly took out the bow and arrow that the mountain thief had placed on the horse, and pulled the bow to shoot arrows.
Three arrows fired at the same time, the three fell to the ground, Yuan Qing couldn't help but shout good, and then saw the spirited Ah Qin say in the girl's crisp and cheerful voice: "My Mei family Ah Qin is not so good at bullying." ”
Without saying a word, Ah Qin raised his horse whip and took the lead in rushing into the gate of the cottage.
Yuan Qing, who had a playful attitude, was infected by her arrogance, and the guards who were no longer waiting for the slow swallowing at the moment pulled out the cold sword in their waists and followed Ah Qin away.
The two men and two horses, with absolutely ferocious speed, kicked off the mountain thief's nest before the large army came.
After the head of the mountain thief who resisted to the end was also tied, Yuan Qing looked at Ah Qin, who was sitting in the shade of the tree with a big grin and gasping for breath, and smiled slightly: "I thought it was a delicate flower, but I didn't expect it to be a small pepper with a choking mouth." ”
"I'm not a little pepper, I'm Ah Qin, the concubine of the Meiguo Gong family." Looking at the young man's expression that was still calm and relaxed after this battle, Ah Qin squinted and said, "Are you really the prince and not the dark guard who pretended to be him to come out to get merit?" ”
Yuan Qing was choked by her for a while, and it took a long time before he asked a little depressedly, "Why do you ask like this?" ”
"Because in my imagination, the prince who has been followed by a large group of palace people since he was a child should be a weak scholar without the strength of a chicken, but..." Ah Qin raised an eyebrow and exclaimed in an undisguised tone: "You are very strong." ”
"You're not bad, it's not at all the same as Miss Goose in the capital." Yuan Qing first laughed, and then thought of a rumor, the amber eyes were full of Noyu: "I heard that the Meiguo Gongjia is also on the draft list this time, if you enter the palace, then I have a mother concubine who does not let her eyebrows be shaved." ”
"Hey, you can't have fun talking about it anymore." Hearing this, Ah Qin, who was still lively and jumpy, was suddenly a little depressed.
Yuan Qing was not moved: "The guards of the Gonggong Mansion are not bad enough to let their own lady be kidnapped, depending on your appearance, it should be to run away from home, and the reason for running away from home I guessed correctly should be that I don't want to run." ”
Ah Qin became more and more depressed: "... Your Royal Highness, has anyone ever told you that in fact, you have a lot of words. ”
The corner of Yuan Qing's lips was bent, and a pleasing dimple was revealed on the side of his cheek: "That looks like Miss Ah Qin is so frank, so lonely and escort miss Ah Qin home." ”
When they first met, Yuan Qing's first impression of Ah Qin was that he was a very powerful and beautiful teenager, while the second impression was that he had a lot of words and was very annoying.
Chapter II
After returning to the inn that night to sleep, Ah Qin had a nightmare of being a mother concubine for more than ten princes all night.
After waking up the next day, Ah Qin's spirit was a little weak, but Yuan Qing was refreshed and told her that they were going to take a boat from the ferry today, and then detour back to the border pass.
"Isn't taking the official road the fastest way?" Ah Qin looked up and asked with a puzzled face.
Yuan Qing's expression was much more solemn, and it took a long time for Ah Qin to listen to him sigh in a somewhat helpless voice: "Forget it, let you prepare your mind in advance, anyway, send you back this way, you will meet in the end ..."
However, before the words could be heard, Ah Qin only felt a tightness in his waist, and instantly moved away from the position where he had been standing before, while at the same time, several men in black with large knives broke through the roof and broke into the battle with the prince's guards.
Until Ah Qin was carried off her horse by Yuan Qing and stepped on the boat with her feet, her expression was still a little confused: "Do those people know that you are a prince?" ”
Yuan Qingliang smiled, "If I weren't a prince, they probably wouldn't be willing to do it desperately." ”
The heaviness in those words, Rao was ah Qin who couldn't understand people's faces, but he also understood in an instant.
"Your Highness, do you feel tired?"
"At first, I felt this way, but now..." The teenager, who was one head high, reached out and touched her soft bun: "I'm used to it." ”
Those who can know the identity of the other party and have the courage to do it should be only those who have non-partial thoughts about the position of prince.
And those people were obviously the brothers closest to him by blood, but everyone wanted him to die at any time.
This made Ah Qin, who grew up under the love of his father and brother, feel really sad.
Since then, despite the extremely fast ships, they have encountered several assassinations, the most dangerous one, when they are separated from the guards, and the big ship is also chiseled into the water and sunk.
Yuan Qing could not freeze the water, so she paddled with one hand and dragged his arm with the other, and when she was tired, she casually grabbed the floating wooden board to rest, and almost exhausted all her strength to get Yuan Qing, who was already unconscious, to the shore.
When he woke up, it was late at night, and Ah Qin was humming a song not far away, while roasting clothes and eating by the fire, and his side face was quiet and beautiful, which made him feel that his originally cool heart was also warmed a little.
"Ah Qin." He looked in her direction and said with some difficulty: "Obviously if you leave me, you can escape on your own." ”
"Leave you behind?" Ah Qin raised an eyebrow, and could not deny: "Not to mention whether my father will kill me after I go back, your father and emperor alone can let everyone in the Mei family move their heads on the grounds that the escort is unfavorable." What's more, if I can save the crown prince from danger, even if I am old and dying in the future, I can proudly mention this glorious past to my children and grandchildren. ”
"Ah Qin, you are very different from the girls in the capital."
Ah Qin looked up, wanting to remind him that you had said this many times, but when he looked at the gentle watery eyes of the other party, he was slightly stunned, for a long time, after looking down and perfectly covering his blush through the firelight, he responded: "Huh? ”
Yuan Qing looked at her reddened ear roots, and did not break, but the tone became softer: "They are elegant and dignified, but they are like a mold carved out, but you are really cute, let people feel or a very happy thing." ”
"Say... Say what these things are for, don't... Don't think you say that, I... I'll be happy. ”
In addition to her identity, another thing that Ah Qin is well known to everyone at the border pass is that she is prone to stuttering as soon as she is happy to speak.
At that time, although Yuan Qing did not know her well-known problems, it did not prevent him from reaching out and holding her hand.
"Ah Qin, the grace of saving my life should be repaid, but now that I have nothing on this riverside, I can only promise myself."
As soon as the words fell, Ah Qin became more and more nervous, only to feel that the skin that was interlocked with his ten fingers was extremely hot, and for a long time, she plucked up enough courage to stutter at him: "But... This, here wild, well, doesn't seem quite right, me, we're all people with status. ”
From childhood to adulthood, His Royal Highness Yuan Qing had never said love to any girl, and now it was hard to say a word, and the other party not only did not have the tearful touch of his imagination, but even associated with a number of things that were inappropriate for children.
Yuan Qing was almost laughed at by her, and after reaching out and rubbing her hair bun fiercely, Fang Cai hu said in a deep voice: "What do you think, Lonely means to let you go back to the election, not all show girls will be selected into the harem, if anyone among the princes is favored, they can also keep their cards together." ”
"Really?" Ah Qin's round apricot eyes instantly lit up: "Then when I return to the election, you must choose me when your father and emperor take a fancy to me." ”
The likes of the children of the border pass have always been frank and frank, and ah Qin has been educated since childhood, that if you like it, don't hesitate, because it is very likely that when you hesitate, the man you are interested in will be preempted by others, and then you will regret the pursuit of each other, that is, doing the behavior of the little three in the name of love, which will be spurned by all upright people.
Chapter III
When she was with Yuan Qing before, Ah Qin didn't feel much, but when he left, she began to miss him all day and all night, and whenever she had time, she liked to ask the maid next to her, how many days were there before she could leave for the capital, or why didn't His Majesty the Emperor like beautiful people so much, why not elect the day in advance. Its proactive appearance almost made the maid think that her lady was not a lone ghost with a phoenix dream.
However, the maids' suspicions came to an abrupt end on the day Ah Qin returned to the capital.
Because the carriage of their gongfu had just shown the passage document, and there was still time to start entering the city, the young man with the jade crown on the head of the carriage came in a hurry, and stopped next to their car with great vigor, looking at the palanquin where their lady was located, and said loudly: "Little Ah Qin of the Mei family, would you like to enter the East Palace with you?" ”
The maids were stunned at first, and then reacted that only the Prince of Donggong could claim to be lonely, and they were frightened and colorless, and desperately pulled Ah Qin's hem to prevent her from moving.
After all, once he was related to the prince, Ah Qin's reputation in this life would be finished.
And No one in Ah Qin's personality knew better than them, even if he entered the Eastern Palace one day, Ah Qin absolutely could not bear the warblers and swallows that were bound to follow, and he would definitely do something appalling at that time.
Ah Qin was not unaware of the helplessness of those palace concubines, but at that time, the young man with the white horse and silver gun had long lived in her heart, and she wanted to be with him, even if she would lose the freedom she most yearned for.
Pulling out the dagger and neatly scratching the hem of the skirt that was tightly grasped, Ah Qin kicked open the car door and looked up at Yuan Qing, looking more serious than ever: "If I want to go with you, I must be your wife." For only your wife can be with you in old age and in the same cave after death. ”
Xu did not expect her to be so blunt, the original green and white handsome face instantly turned red, after a long while, Ah Qin listened to him pretend to cough seriously, looked into her eyes, and made the most sincere oath: "The people of Chang'an witness, if Ah Qin is his wife, I will cherish the treasure, if I violate this oath, I will not die well." ”
The young man's eyes were full of love and seriousness, and despite the wailing of the maid next to him, Ah Qin did not hesitate any longer and directly handed him his hand.
Yuan Qing's palm had a thin cocoon left by years of practicing sword riding and shooting, which was not soft at all, but it was enough to reassure her.
Then he hugged her like this, ignoring everyone's surprised eyes, and sent her directly back to her home in the capital.
Subsequently, the news that the concubine of the Mei family had made a private affair with the prince before she could run for election quickly spread throughout the capital.
Hearing this news, the emperor who had been obsessed with beauty for decades touched his beard and praised the prince's fatherly demeanor, and the courtiers felt like ashes that they had seen the future of Yuan Qing through the emperor, only the usually calm Mei Guogong immediately said that he was sick and sick and rushed back to the capital.
"Kneel." Even before he could change his armor, Mei Guogong carried his precious daughter, who had been holding in the palm of his hand since childhood, to the ancestral ancestral hall: "Do you know what mistake you have made?" ”
Knowing that he was wrong, Ah Qin stared at the embroidered shoes and simply did not say a word.
Seeing her like this, Mei Guogong became more and more angry: "You are wrong in not having a tolerant belly, but you want to get mixed up with the East Palace, you are wrong in your infatuation and wrong payment, and you are in love with the man who can't give you the most affection in the world." ”
"Daddy, I'm not convinced." Hearing that his sweetheart was slandered, Ah Qin immediately exploded: "In ancient times, there were praises for dai dai who were exclusively favored, and now there is my Mei family Ah Qin who favors the East Palace, and moreover, Ah Qing has made a promise to me in front of the people of Chang'an." ”
Mei Guogong's forehead was half-polished, and he grinded his teeth and said, "Let you not study seriously, it is right to praise you for being a special favorite, but in the end, the emperors who spoiled them are all dead!" promise? That thing is not worth a steamed bun that can fill your stomach! When Our Majesty was not yet on the throne, he still wept the promise of the Golden Ruan Hall to make every effort to cure it! ”
Ah Qin groaned weakly, "Ah Dad, you are talking about Junshang in vain." ”
At the same time, after hearing the news that Mei Guogong had returned to the capital, Yuan Qing did not even have time to summon the imperial clothes, so he rushed directly to the Guo Gong Mansion, and saw the two fathers and daughters holding each other with big eyes and small eyes, Yuan Qing's mouth twitched, and after desperately holding back his laughter, he stepped forward and knelt in front of Mei Guo Gong, and said in a deep tone: "Father-in-law, I really don't want to hide it, Ah Qin already has a lonely flesh and bones." ”
Ah Qin looked at him in disbelief, and was about to say that I hadn't even held hands with you, and where did the flesh and bones come from, do you want my father to kill me, bastard, who knew that the teenager kneeling next to her did not softly pinch her, Ah Qin instantly realized, and then through the tears that he pinched out, he looked at his father with great pity: "Father, daughter is not filial piety..."
Hiss, her reputation as innocent as the white snow of yangchun is finally gone.
Mei Guogong's trembling fingers moved from Ah Qin to Yuan Qing, and then from Yuan Qing to Ah Qin, the last one was not willing to fight, one did not have the courage to fight, simply slapped the Eight Immortals Pear Blossom Table next to him, Tie Qing's face, and it took a long time to squeeze a few words out of his teeth: "Tomorrow I will write to Your Majesty ming and let you finish your marriage as soon as possible." ”
The next morning, Mei Guogong's letter to the prince, the news that the prince was happy to be his father, almost shattered the hearts of all the girls in the capital with phoenix dreams.
Because of this, the two people's affair was finally unimpeded, and even in order to avoid the premature birth of the 'child', before the election, the emperor sent people to prepare for the wedding in the Eastern Palace, and the Duke of Mei also took stock of the dowry for Ah Qin as quickly as possible that was comparable to the dowry of the Eastern Palace.
Marrying the person he most wanted to marry, Ah Qin felt happier.
Chapter IV
In the winter of the same year, the emperor died, and the whole country mourned.
Subsequently, Crown Prince Yuan Qing succeeded to the throne, and Crown Princess Meiqin was made empress, and then in the name of national mourning, she was deposed from the election of the throne, and the harem favored the empress alone, which was praised by the whole country.
It was ah qin's happiest time except for the girl waiting in the middle of the boudoir.
Every day, Yuan Qing would come to accompany her to breakfast after the morning dynasty, and then he would let people take the fold to the Changle Palace where she was located to correct the fold. Whenever that happened, she would lie down on a chaise longue beside her and read the notebook idly, occasionally knocking on interesting points and reading them to him. Occasionally, if Yuan Qing was idle and early, he would draw a kite for her by hand, and the two of them would run freely in the imperial garden like children, and the laughter would go far with the wind.
However, all this ended in the midsummer of the fourth year.
The Xianbei clan raised troops to attack, but the soldiers stationed in the border city were repeatedly defeated, such as the experienced veteran generals such as Mei Guogong, who could not spare themselves, and Yuan Qing had just passed the weak crown at this time, which was the age of the bloody Fang Gang, and in a fit of anger, he ordered the imperial conquest.
Ah Qin was worried about not knowing how to be good, and wanted to follow, but because he had to help him stabilize the courtiers in the court, he could only watch him go farther and farther away at the city gate.
Unable to see each other, the two began to send letters every three days, and the long letters told endless acquaintances.
But gradually, her letter was still so long, but his letter became slower and slower, shorter and shorter, and it often took ten days and a half to come.
She began to vaguely feel that something was wrong, but she never dared to ask in the letter, but learned to habitually make excuses for him, such as the war was busy and had no time to take care of him, or their frequent correspondence made the minister feel that the people were hurting the people and money...
In the end, Ah Qin finally heard that the Nationalist army had completely broken the xianbei, and the good reports sent by the generals were several pages long, but he only wrote four short words: very good, don't read it.
After repeatedly reading the letterhead under the palace lamp for a long time, Ah Qin finally could no longer force himself to calm down.
However, after sending people to ask his father about his veteran general in the army, he learned that after the original Xianbei kingdom was broken, Yuan Qingben ordered the extermination of all Xianbei royalty, but because of the intercession of The Xianbei Princess Yang Lexiao, he later changed to the Xianbei royal family to life imprisonment.
It is rumored that the Xianbei people are as beautiful as flowers, and their princes, both men and women, have the posture of falling into the country.
Every word in her ears, Ah Qin felt that her heart was like a knife, but despite this, she still wanted to believe him, believe that he would not betray the oath he had made to her.
"Where has Your Majesty gone now?" Reaching out to throw the message slip into the copper basin, Ah Qin asked quietly.
"Back to the empress dowager, there are still about thirty miles to go to the capital."
"Go and bring the sweaty horses of hongu."
After this, she had such a beautiful hope, trying to prove the unreliability of the rumors, but the result was a mess.
Most of the soldiers who went to the battlefield recognized her, plus at this time, Ah Qin's phoenix crown had not been removed, and there was still a phoenix hanging from his waist, and the soldiers did not dare to stop her, so she easily approached the imperial reed.
"A Qing..."
She called his name, lifted the curtain, and then saw that a thousand arrows pierced her heart.
Inside the imperial ream, the woman's clothes were half-dissolved and leaning on Yuan Qing's body, and the delicate jade fingers twisted a crystal clear grape, as if it was about to feed the young man with a jade crown behind him.
"You didn't return because of her?" The tears swirled in the eye socket several times, and Ah Qin finally forced it back, but the red eyes coldly questioned.
As if he did not dare to face her expression, the young emperor looked down and said nothing.
And the woman even took the opportunity to pounce into his arms, and said in a soft and lingering tone: "Your Majesty, the concubines are so afraid..."
"Only a concubine of the rank of concubine or above can call herself a concubine, what are you?" Ah Qin looked at her coldly, and then as soon as he reached out, he waved the long whip in his hand at her.
"Enough! The mistakes are all in the fall, Ah Le He Gu, why should the queen be embarrassed by a weak woman. He looked up, and there was a little impatience in his eyes: "Isn't it enough that the harem of Yuan's harem has only been the empress for five years?" If you want to be with someone you like, do you want the queen to agree to it? ”
Before he left, he also called her Ah Qin affectionately, saying that she was his beloved, but in the blink of an eye, Ah Qin became an empress, and the people he liked became other girls.
The tears that had been endured for a long time finally fell, but he did not look at her again, and then he ordered Yu Yuan to continue to move forward.
The indifference overwhelmed her.
Chapter V
In fact, at this time, Yuan Qing was just a big man, and felt that Ah Qin was an empress but angered his majesty, coupled with Yang Lexiao's original national color Tianxiang, no man was not lustful, not to mention that he was still the emperor who sat in the world.
He thought that as long as Ah Qin could be soft on him, he would have no choice even if he reduced Yang Lexiao, who was raising and playing, to the most remote place to be a palace girl.
But he had forgotten that his Ah Qin was such a hot girl.
She decided that his change was because of Yang Lexiao's relationship, and she would never let her go.
During his early reign, Ah Qin rushed into the palace where Yang Lexiao was located, and whipped Yang Lexiao with a whip, which eventually caused Yang Lexiao to miscarry.
It was his child after all, and he couldn't not be angry, but for his anger, Ah Qin became more and more aggrieved: "I didn't know that she had a child..." The words stopped, as if remembering something, and the eyes were red again: "When I was worried about you day and night, you actually spoiled this woman." ”
Ah Qin's father had only one woman in her life, and the nomadic families she was in border passing had only one woman in her life, and she had always regarded Yuan Qing as her husband and not an emperor, so she forgot that a high-ranking king and having a harem was his innate right.
And just at this moment, Yang Lexiao, who had not said a word since her arrival, actually got up from the pool of blood, knelt in front of Yuan Qing, and said with rain: "The concubine told the empress dowager that she already had a child in her womb, and asked the empress dowager to punish her and must wait until the concubines gave birth, but the empress dowager did not believe it..."
"You bullshit!" Ah Qin bit his lip and looked at Yuan Qing stubbornly: "Ah Qing, you believe me." ”
He leaned over and looked at her for a long time, and finally got up and said indifferently: "It seems that the empress did not listen to the words of the emperor before, no matter what the reason, Princess Yang was pregnant with the children of the empress, and since the empress was immoral, the empress knelt outside this palace to pray for the child." ”
"You asked me to kneel for her baby?" Ah Qin looked at him in disbelief: "My Mei family Ah Qin kneels on the heaven and earth monarch, kneels down to his parents and relatives, and some other Fan Bang fox jingxiu wants me to bend my knees." ”
At that time, due to the urgency of the dynasty, many courtiers happened to rush to this side, and just happened to encounter a scene of the empress's stalemate, Yuan Qing felt that his face was lost, and in anger, he pushed Ah Qin hard: "Wanton! ”
Ah Qin did not expect yuan Qing to move, and when he could not dodge for a moment, he pushed him to the ground and rolled down the white jade stone steps at the entrance of the temple.
It is reasonable to say that Ah Qin grew up practicing on the battlefield since childhood, and it was nothing at all to be hungry and fall, but she felt a sharp pain in her lower abdomen at the same time as she fell to the ground, and then there was scarlet blood gradually soaking the skirt.
"Ah Qin." Yuan Qing was also frightened for a moment, and hurriedly carried Ah Qin into the temple: "Quick, quickly pass on the imperial doctor." ”
Ah Qin and Yuan Qing have been related for many years, and their greatest wish is to give birth to an heir for him.
Now she was finally pregnant with his baby, but when she first found out, she left her completely.
"I accidentally killed Yang Lexiao's child, so Your Majesty used my child's life to pay her." The breeze is gentle, the bright yellow tassels are flickering, Ah Qin caresses the flat abdomen, and the voice is light and ethereal: "Your Majesty, now Ah Qin and you are clear." ”
"Ah Qin..." When he heard this news, Yuan Qing was also remorseful, and when she was not awake, he had thought of many things to say to her, but he opened his mouth, but he did not say a word in the end.
After this incident, the two empresses finally had an irreparable gap, and the two people who were originally closest gradually drifted apart.
Because he did not know how to face Ah Qin, Yuan Qing, in addition to the Shang Dynasty, sang with the well-behaved and supple Yang Lexiao at night in Weiyang Palace, and Ah Qin, who had lost his child, washed his face with tears in Changle Palace and became emaciated day by day.
In the end, the maid who had followed her since childhood really couldn't see it, so she sent someone to invite Mei Guogong into the palace.
Looking at Ah Qin, who was now haggard, Mei Guogong trembled with his hands and stroked her slightly messy hair before sighing slightly: "Ah Qin, Your Majesty is first and foremost an emperor, and secondly your husband, and being born as an emperor is born with the power to have three palaces and six courts." If you still have feelings for him and want to go back to the past with him, you must learn to tolerate the various women around him who have appeared or are about to appear in the future. ”
It is said that the mother Mo Ruo's father, even at this step, Mei Guogong can see Ah Qin's unwillingness at a glance.
She still wanted to be with him after all.
Ah Qin softened and began to face up to Yuan Qing's identity, and in only half a year, he changed from a naïve wife to a palace concubine with perfect manners.
However, just when she was ready to desperately save him, news came from the former dynasty that the Mei family had been raided for rebellion...
Ah Qin's legs were weak, and he almost fell to the ground, and then without thinking about it, he directly broke into the Weiyang Palace where the lights were flickering, and his apricot-like eyes stubbornly and absolutely looked at Yuan Qing, who was smiling with beauty on the throne, and his voice sounded like a knife: "Why? ”
After waving his hand and retreating from everyone in the hall, Ah Qin listened to him speak in a deep voice: "The border guards only know that there is an emperor of Mei Guogong, and the soldiers in the hands of Mei Guogong are the strongest soldiers, not for this reason, And Shuo cannot take back the military power." ”
Ah Qin sneered, "Even if you know that you are framing Zhongliang?" ”
"Ah Qin." Yuan Qing knew that he owed a lot to Ah Qin, and it was precisely because of this guilt that he was more and more unable to face her: "The affairs of the former dynasty do not involve the harem, you are still the empress of Yuan. ”
Ah Qin laughed out loud, laughed out of tears, and for a long time, he slowly knelt down in front of him: "Your Majesty wants to regain power, the concubines have nothing to say, and now, I only beg you to keep my father and brother's life." ”
In the past, he had spared all the humble royal families because of Yang Lexiao, but now she was honored as an empress, but she only begged her to spare the lives of her father and brother.
However, until she broke her head and the blood stained the gold bricks in front of her, he only said expressionlessly: "Become a son of heaven, and be a promise of a thousand gold." ”
In the final analysis, it is just fear of the Mei family's power in the sky, lying on the side of the bed, and not allowing others to sleep.
At this point, Ah Qin was finally completely dead to him.
Chapter VI
The day he learned that his father and brother had been pushed out of the noon gate and beheaded, Ah Qin fell ill.
All winter, I was in a hospital bed.
Although Yuan Qing knew about this, he had never come to see her once.
In the spring of the following year, at the suggestion of Yang Lexiao, Yuan Qing never blocked the general election, and the originally silent harem was suddenly filled with beautiful people with various postures, but no matter who it was, it never shared Yang Lexiao's half favor.
The harem has never been a charity hall, for the favored concubines, even if they are only a small beauty, the harem slaves also find ways to meet them, and for the unfavored, even if they are as empresses as Ah Qin, they are also desolate.
Originally, Ah Qin didn't care about anything anymore, but after seeing his personal maid being humiliated by Yang Lexiao, he finally couldn't help but change into a gorgeous costume and sit in front of the dresser to draw his eyebrows.
After the last touch of flowers was carefully pasted, Ah Qin looked at himself in full makeup, bent his eyebrows, and smiled slightly: "In my imagination before, the way of husband and wife was only to grow old with the beloved, but now in this deep palace, the way of husband and wife is only to exchange false tenderness for a lifetime of glory." ”
That night, the peach blossoms in the imperial garden bloomed like a xia, and the emperor who came out to admire the flowers met the empress who had just recovered from a serious illness, and then stayed at the Changle Palace.
After October, Ah Qin gave birth to the emperor's eldest son, and the emperor pardoned the world.
The following year, the emperor's eldest son fell into the water and fell critically ill, and Yang Concubine also had a high fever, and the emperor ordered all the imperial doctors to wait all night in Weiyang Palace, and Ah Qinjiu searched for the imperial doctor without success, learned of this matter, and completely formed a mortal vendetta with Yang Lexiao.
After that, the eldest son of the emperor survived the dangerous night, and it was difficult not to die, and Ah Qin also understood that at present, she was getting older, and no amount of feelings could withstand the gentle smile of the red face of the city.
So he stopped dwelling on the harem, paved the way for his son, and turned around to focus on the plot of the former dynasty.
After Yuan Qing learned about it, he became more and more distant from Ah Qin and turned to favorIng Yang Lexiao, but Fan Ah Qin and Yang Lexiao had a conflict, although they knew that Yang Lexiao was at fault first, they also favored the latter, in order to keep the position of the emperor's eldest son, Ah Qin was wronged.
End
The night after returning from the emperor's residence, Ah Qin had a night's dream.
In the dream, the young man wearing a jade crown came to her in a hurry, and called out to her with great vigor: "Little Ah Qin of the Mei family, would you like to enter the East Palace with loneliness?" ”
She answered with a snuggly voice, and as soon as she held out her hand, before she could touch him, a eunuch called out in a sharp voice, "The empress dowager is not well, and Her Majesty has died." ”
Ah Qin hurriedly got up and almost fell to the ground.
The man she had loved all her life and hated all her life would never be seen again.
